Other than Ronaldo, there are two more Portuguese in the formation – Bruno Fernandes and Joao Cancelo. But they are not as old as their captain so it will be inappropriate for them to retire after this World Cup.

“‘You played with my father Elanga’, and then everything clicked and I said ‘okay’, and it made me happy because I wasn’t the only Swedish one in Manchester, we had another Swedish player.”
